Ben's

There's a little spot Where the chicks are hot Where the blues are in And the downs are not Order a drink and get a pretty ladies smile Just ease it back and relax awhile Dig the beat The chicks are sweet You know your at Ben's Troubles escape like bubbles Sorrows are for tomorrows Just leave the downs at the door Hear that Jazz? Need I say more Just smile and for a drink or two A pretty lady will dance with you Just a brush of the skin And a little squeeze Not much more then a flirting tease The chicks are sweet but not to please Please at Ben's At the table in the corner where the shadows are soft You can sit and speak your mind Those chicks got nothing but your time Tell them what's right and what's wrong Keep buying them drinks And they will listen all night long All night long at Ben's Heaven's attention you keep by drinking liquor in a glass Hers are watered so they can outlast But when the cash is gone the attention will pass The chicks get cold Your stories get old The day gets near And it's time for you to be getting outta here So you wave to the Man That cool cat who leads the band Who keeps singing the blues That made the evening swam You get your hat and wave goodbye to him That's right That's him At Ben's

Is this a real place? It should be. Reads like some place I would like to visit. Good descriptive write here.
